LinuxTag 2008

Submitted by florian on Wed, 2008-05-21 22:54.

Like last year some of the projects here are present at LinuxTag fair in Berlin/Germany. The projects GPE, GPE Phone Edition and OpenEmbedded will be at the "Mobile and Embedded" booth at the LinuxTag fair and conference. It takes place at Berlin Expo Center from from May 28th to May 31st, 2008. The projects share the booth 112 (kindly sponsored by Tarent) in hall 7 with several other related projects.
You can expect to see a lot of funky devices running interesting mobile software there as well at the chance to meet some of the developers. We would be happy to meet you at LinuxTag!

Linux Foundation Collaboration Meeting 2008

Submitted by nils on Fri, 2008-04-11 00:36.

This was nice!

Three days of meetings at the J.J.Pickle Research Center of IBM at Austin, Texas USA.
A lot of groups of the Linux ecosystem met, some kernel guys, desktop guys, Linux printing folks, power management interested and also a complete track of Linux on mobile devices.

With almost every meeting and presentation mobile Linux was at least mentioned once. This is quite amazing!

Word twisting ... trademark issue continued

Submitted by nils on Mon, 2007-06-25 21:39.

Talking by blogs... if this not already shows the culprit :(

Foreword: I would love to talk to responsible people directly by personal email and not "discuss" this mess in public. But since George France does not reply to my mails and since Russ Nelson has my email address in some kind of ban-list on his server (see [1] below) I have no other choice to comment on this publicly.

So here we go. Russ writes in his blog [2] dated 11th June 2006 titled "Ownership issue..." some quite, um, interesting things:

"Nils Faerber is throwing mudballs in his blog entry entitled Trademark issue...."

Trademark issue...

Submitted by nils on Thu, 2007-06-07 09:11.

Do you know that feeling when you feel treated unjust? When someone has done wrong to you and you simply cannot do anything against it?

This is exactly what I am feeling again and again these days ever since I heard about the trademark registrations of handhelds.org especially done by George France. I do not want to repeat the facts, there is a nice artcile about this here:

By now I set any lever in movement I could against this really more than questionable action. I know 100% that George France is wrong in doing what he did.
